WANTED: Road bike w/fender/rack eyelets

[dgaddis1]

Just found out we have showers here at work. Now that I'm only 13 miles away, I can start riding my bike to work a few times a week.

Anyone got a road bike they don't ride much? Preferably something with rack/fender eyelets so I can carry stuff with me when needed?

EDIT: I'm about 5'11". Sort of in between a medium and large frame on most mtn bikes.

Dustin,
I've got a complete Surly Crosscheck, 56cm, at the shop for sale.
Let me know if you're interested and I'll give more details.
$475 is asking price.

I'll throw in free fenders. Free Full Fenders

It'll be at the shop tonight? I'll try and get over there before six and check it out. I think I'd rather have something a little lighter and with STI style shifters though. But I have always thought the Cross Check was a cool bike........I could commute, and race the SMC on it

I should be there by then. Otherwise I'll be in on Wed.
If not, just tell whoever (Brad, David, Robert, Tyler, Eileen) that you want to look at the Surly I have upstairs. Let them know I spoke with you.
Take it down, air the tires, go ride if you like.
It's very versatile as both road and offroad.
I was able to put 700x42c ritchey cross tires on there at one point.
Makes a great flat bar cross bike as well.

I'm not gonna make it, I'll check it out another time.

Here's what happened...

I got to work, saw your car.
Got out, went inside and took some stuff to the back.
Came back out to front of store, looked around for you, but didn't see you.
Went back outside and your car was gone.
I'm guessing you were upstairs putting the bike back while I was in the back.
Just missed you. It was like 40 seconds.
Crazy.

[dgaddis1]

lol, that is crazy. yeah, I ended up making it over there after all. It's a cool bike, but not really what I'm looking for. Thanks anyways. it's probably gonna be a little while before I can buy anything anyhow.
